Later on, Priyanka’s spokesperson clarified the same and told Metro.co.uk, “‘Following government guidance, Priyanka’s hair was coloured for the purpose of the film she is currently shooting in London. ‘The salon was opened privately for the production and everyone involved had been tested and followed both the DCMS working guidelines and the film production regulations. As I am sure you are aware, Film and TV production is permitted to continue in the UK, and locations can continue to accommodate shoots and recces that are carried out in-line with government guidelines. The exemption paperwork legally permitting here to be there was provided to the police, and they left satisfied.”

Currently, the 38-year-old actress is stranded in London with her husband and singer Nick Jonas owing to the lockdown.

Recently, on Monday, the British Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced a nationwide lockdown to try and slow the surge in COVID-19 cases.
